Suffer in Silence by Kelsey Clayton

5.0

Suffer in Silence is book 1 in the Malvagio Mafia Duet. It’s a dark romance with all the elements I crave in a mafia story: twists, suspense, action, and grit combined with a dose of angst and plenty of heat along with a diverse and interesting cast of characters. But what. a. cliffhanger. we’re left on.

Saxon Forbes is the eldest daughter of her family, a pre-med student and all-around good girl who just wants a family dinner for her 21st birthday. When her bestie, Nessa, convinces her to hit up Pulse, she locks eyes with Kage Malvagio and is instantly entranced. While she’s clueless as to who he is and what he does, as the granddaughter of Silas Kingston, she’s been on Kage’s radar for years.

When her beloved grandfather passes away, Saxon is unwittingly caught in the crossfire of a mafia/bratva war. Worse yet is how she ended up in this position.

What ensues is the story of Kage’s pursuit of revenge and the unexpected feelings for Saxon, who proves to hold her own against the broody, emotionless Don.

This fast-paced tale will draw you in from the very beginning and leave you breathless by the last page. I need answers and couldn’t wait to dive into Symphony.
